This true wilderness cabin is located in a remote and rugged backcountry setting near the headwaters of Bobbie Burns Creek. \u00a0Tenured as a BC Forest Service recreation site, this 6-person cabin was funded and built by the Columbia Valley Hut Society in September 1999. \u00a0The cabin is named after Mark Kingsbury, the president of CMH at that time. \u00a0Mark took a special interest in the building of the cabin, making several trips in to monitor its progress and personally donating the cabin door and windows from his own \u201cunder renovation\u201d home. \u00a0The hut was named for him posthumously the summer after it was completed.<\/p>\n

This hard to access location in International Basin serves as a base for experienced recreationalists to pursue climbing and ski touring opportunities as well as explore old mining claim sites. The hut is also well suited for ski tourers on the Rogers Pass-Bugaboos traverse to enjoy a night of \u201ccivilized\u201d living before heading back out for the remainder of their trip. *Note food caches flown in have become a problem, please ensure non-perishable food only in burnable containers (boxes). Relative inaccessibility, glacier travel and rugged terrain limits cabin availability to experienced backcountry users only.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
